About Levie

Levie is settling into foster care and taking things at her own pace. She’s not a fan of hectic adoption events and shows her best side when she feels safe and relaxed. At six years old and about 76 lbs, Levie has left behind her days raising pups and is ready for a forever home of her own. She’s a beautiful German Shepherd/Lab mix who enjoys walks, bursts of zoomies in a fenced yard, and quiet time sunning herself on the deck. Levie would make a great jogging companion but she knows how to chill out, too. She gets along well with other dogs, ignores cats, and has a gentle way about her. Strangers can make her nervous at first but she does warm up if you give her some space and time. Levie is house trained, spayed, microchipped, fully vaccinated, and kept up-to-date on preventatives. She’d do best in a laid-back household that gives her a little room to settle in. Every good dog finds her place—Levie just needs the right person to see her for who she really is.
